Answer: 14.0 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the distance that both Ade and Kali travelled. Use the time and speed of Ade to find this out:

Distance = Speed * Time

= 15 * 2

= 30 km

Kali took 2 hours 15 minutes to travel 30km. Her speed is therefore:

= Distance / Time

Convert the time to decimal:

Mixed fraction = 2¹⁵/₆₀

= 2¹/₄

Decimal = 2.15 hours

Average speed = 30 / 2.15

= 13.95

= 14.0 km/h
